Evidence / storm surfaces

How Laverne saw the hail — from two instruments

Aug 14, 2026 · Laverne, OK

Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.

The point detections NEXRAD recorded overhead. Each signature marks where the radar saw hail aloft — it is a detection, not a stone measured on the ground.

The storm in context

Where Aug 14, 2026 sits in Laverne's hail record.

This was Laverne's 18th recorded hail day, arriving 22 days after the Jul 23, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 14th of the 19 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Laverne at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Aug 14, 2026 convective day was bigger than Laverne: the same system put hail over 316 other tracked cities, 3 of them in Oklahoma. Nearest: Freedom (28 miles east, up to 0.75"); Shattuck (29 miles south, up to 0.5"); Woodward (31 miles southeast, up to 0.75").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 19 Laverne storm dates on a live map — both surfaces, the reports, and a replay — and the same map is where you draw the swath. This page rebuilds nightly.

Ground reports

What people on the ground reported

No reports filed with the NWS

These are storm reports filed with the National Weather Service and released through the NOAA Storm Prediction Center — public-domain observations from spotters, the public, and NWS surveys. We quote each one exactly as filed.

For this storm over Laverne, the NWS report log is empty — a common outcome, since ground reports only happen when someone witnesses the hail and takes the time to call it in. The detection record for the date lives in the radar maps above.

Near the severe threshold

What 0.75" hail means for Laverne roofs.

A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.

A storm day here is a convective day — it runs from noon to noon UTC, so late-night hail is grouped with the afternoon storm that spawned it rather than split across two calendar dates. Ground reports are public-domain observations from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center. Radar tells you where to look. Only an inspection confirms damage at an address. Last updated Aug 17, 2026.
